Macron's Coalition Faces Decline Ahead of European Elections

Support narrows to wealthy and elderly as far-right gains momentum.

  • Support for Macron's coalition in the upcoming European elections has significantly declined, with a notable 13-point gap behind the far-right Rassemblement National (RN) party.
  • The coalition's support base has narrowed to primarily wealthy and elderly voters, with a stark contrast in voting intentions between age groups.
  • Valérie Hayer has been confirmed to lead Macron's Renaissance party and its allies in the June elections, amid challenges in rallying broader support.
  • The far-right RN party, led by Jordan Bardella, is consolidating its base, with a strong eurosceptic stance among its supporters.
  • Despite a general favorability towards the European project among the French electorate, the RN's eurosceptic message is resonating with a significant portion of voters.
